Harnessing single photons in quantum technology
Prof. Xiao-Song Ma
Nanjing University, Marie Curie postdoc at Yale University

Abstract: Quantum photonics provides a promising path for both delivering quantum-enhanced technologies, including quantum simulation and quantum communication , as well as exploring fundamental physics, including realizations of delayed-choice experiments and nonlocal quantum eraser.
In this talk, I will first present our work on long-distance free-space quantum teleportation. We successfully teleported the quantum states of single photons from La Palma to Tenerife. This demonstration represents a major step towards the realization of quantum communication on a global scale. In the second part of my talk, I will cover our recent endeavors along this line, including demonstrations of on-chip interaction-free measurements via the quantum Zeno effect, as well as on-chip single-photon detection. Finally, I will discuss the opportunities and challenges for improving the scalability of photonic quantum systems.

Bio:Xiao-Song Ma’s main research interests are in experimental implementations of photonic quantum information processing. The spectrum of his research covers quantum nano-photonics, quantum communication, simulation and foundations of quantum physics. His published works include 1 Nature, 3 Nat. Phys., 1 PNAS papers.
 
Information in a photon
Dr. Zhenda Xie
Senior research scientist of University of California, Los Angeles.

Abstract: The photon is a fundamental carrier of information, for communication and information processing under the rule of quantum mechanics. To fully utilize the power of a photon for practical applications, high quantum data rate need to be demonstrated with strong processing power, which requires new generation of quantum information technology. In this talk, I will present about our latest advance in this area.

Bio: Zhenda Xie is a senior research scientist in the Electrical Engineering Department at University of California, Los Angeles. He is interested in the studies in quantum optics and nonlinear optics, and his research area covers optical quantum information, integrated quantum optics, optical frequency standard, nonlinear optical frequency conversion, and solid state laser technology. He received his Ph.D degree from Nanjing University in 2011. His published papers includes Nat. Photon., Phys. Rev. Lett. etc.
